Observe, also, how soon the petals wither after the stigma has received pollen. 278. Pollination.—The transfer of the pollen from anther to stigma is known as pollination. The pollen may fall of its own weight on the adjacent stigma, or it may be carried from flower to flower by wind, insects or other agents. There may be self-pollination, close-pollination or cross-pollination. In self-pollination, the pollen that falls on the pistil is de- rived from the same flower. In close- pollination, the pol- len may be derived from different flowers on the same plant. In cross-pollination, the pollen is derived from flowers on differ-.
